Her worried expression conveyed the concern she felt for the black creature, which had slipped underwater in the exact manner her mother had cautioned her to never do; 'You'll drown if you put your head unde-- RALESKA, DON'T DO THAT -- fine, feels great, doesn't it? Aren't you glad you did that?' exasperated words followed by a smug, knowing look from her mother as she hauled a sopping and bawling child from the brine.
"Ee's drown!" The girl cried, scrambling over her father as she watched a wave lap the surface where the fin had last been seen. Her ears rose and fell in quick succession as she whined, a wail bubbling in her throat: "ee's not suppos'd to do that!"

at times unbearably so.
